Mast cell stabilizer disodium cromoglycate improves long-term cognitive impairment after general anesthesia exposure in neonatal mice.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Prolonged exposure to general anesthesia (GA) results in long-lasting cognitive impairment, especially during critical stages of brain development. An exaggerated neuroinflammation induced by anesthesia is generally considered to be a key cause of cognitive impairment. Materials and methods: Postnatal day 7 (PND 7) mice were exposed to GA by isoflurane inhalation for 6 h or mock anesthesia. Disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) was intraperitoneally injected daily for 2 weeks, beginning from 30 min before anesthesia. The post-anesthesia evaluation included behavioral tests, toluidine blue staining, immunofluorescence and western blot. Results: Our results demonstrated the long-term cognition were impaired after 6 h GA exposure in neonatal mice. DSCG treatment ameliorated early mast cells (MCs) degranulation and mast cell tryptase (MCT) expression, which helps to attenuate subsequent neuroinflammation, activation of microglia and astrocytes, and damage to oligodendrocytes and synapses to improve cognitive impairment. Conclusion: Disodium cromoglycate could effectively improve long-term cognitive impairment after GA exposure in neonatal mice.
